What size wire do you need for a 100amp braker?
Service entrance wire should be AWG #3 copper.
How many wires can you put in a conduit?
Depends on the size of the conduit and the size of the wire.Allowable Conduit Fill CapacitiesSize and Type Of Conduit #14 Wire #12 Wire #10 Wire 1/2" EMT 12 9 5 3/4" EMT 22 16 10 1" EMT 35 26 16 1 1/2" EMT 84 61 38 1/2" PVC 10 7 4 3/4" PVC 18 13 8 1" PVC 32 23 15 1 1/2" PVC 80 58 36
What is the diameter size of EMT conduit?
EMT is electrical metallic tubing. In the electrical trade there are nominal sizes expressed as a standard size. To answer your question you must state the conduit size in either electrical terms or in standard size terms to get a conversion size.For example standard size 1/2" EMT has an actual diameter size of 3/4" and the 1/2"EMT connector for the 1/2" EMT conduit needs a 7/8" hole.Likewise with 3/4" EMT the actual outside diameter is 15/16" and the 3/4" EMT connector needs a 1-1/8" hole.
What wire size for 100amp load for distance of 1000ft?
At that distance you will have a voltage drop of 81.25 volts if you use the recommended #6 wire on a 240 volt, 100 amp single phase circuit. Therefore I recommend you contact you electric utility and let them figure the voltage drop and the size wire required to safely run this distance. Using too small a wire can damage the electronics at the end of the run.
What size wire for 100amp?
8 is the size of wire to use for grounding a 100 Amp panel. Green is color used for grounding8 is code.A #3 copper wire with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 110 amps consecutively.
What size wire do you need for a 100amp braker?
Service entrance wire should be AWG #3 copper.
What size wire for 100amp. 12vdc?
A #3 copper wire with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 110 amps consecutively. As for the voltage, wire is usually rated in 300, 600 and 1000 volts. Any three of these insulations factors will handle 12 VDC.
What size copper wire to use for a 100amp single phase three meter service feed from the riser?
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps.

What size pipe for a 150 amp 3 phase sub panel?
1" 1/2 EMT for 1/0 copper wire, or 2" for 3/0 Alum wire or copper clad Alum.

How many single phase can you run on a 100amp 3 phase?
You can divide a three phase service into (3) single phase circuits providing you have a 4th neutral wire.
What is the maxi fuse resistance?
100amp

Explain wire size as opposed to gauge size?
see American Wire Gauge. The larger the number the small the wire size.
What can I use in place of 100amp fuse?
Another 10 amp fuse. If you use anything larger, you can fry your equipment, cause a fire, and so on. If this fuse is blowing all the time, there is a short in the component or wire.
